    Check out Final Gravity if they are not on your list. You will not be disappointed. Word is they will be brewing a collaboration with TBC next week.

    Thanks for the heads up. I know I won't be able to go home with the veil (although I am going to be bringing some tired hands with me for some IP trade purposes), so I figured see who else I could find. Heard good things about Triple Crossing and The Answer

    Here's what's available for today's release. The Waxing Poetic is what's leftover from the 3/24 release.
    __________________________________________________
    Today in Fulton we have 1 day old Clever Girl IPA, Falcon Smash IPA and Black Hand Nitro Cold Brew available today. There will also be a single keg of Citra/Mosaic dry hopped Clever Girl on draft in Fulton.

    Clever Girl IPA
    - $14 per 4 pack (2 case limit) - This IPA is a sharp counterpoint to the resin, dank citrus of Falcon Smash. It's an incredibly light bodied soft and dry American IPA with impressions of tropical citrus and dark berry floral aromas. Hopped generously with Citra and Mosaic hops

    Falcon Smash IPA - $13 per 4 pack (2 case limit) - Our flagship IPA. Dank hop character from double dry hop of Falconer's Flight, Centennial and Columbus. Fermented with house yeast strain.

    Waxing Poetic Mango Grapefruit Berliner - $16.50 per 4 pack (6 cases left and a 2 case limit). This beer clocks in at 4% and is a tart Berliner Weisse. It was fermented and conditioned over hundreds of pounds of mango and grapefruit pure.

    Black Hand Nitro Cold Brew - $5 per can - Bold yet smooth cold brew coffee with velvety mouthfeel.

    More info on the canned nitro coffee if you did not catch their post yesterday

    Whoops! We just started a new coffee venture with our friends at Black Hand Coffee Company - www.RVAnitro.com. Black Hand Coffee Co. and Triple Crossing Brewing Co. have created a new coffee venture to roast, manufacture and package nitro cold brew coffee. Cold Brew Coffee has continued to gain market share on traditional drip coffee and we saw a big opportunity in the Richmond market. Black Hand’s expertise in roasting and brewing coffee coupled with the nitrogen dosing process during canning has created a bold yet smooth coffee with velvety mouthfeel and just enough caffeine to give you a kick any time of day. Cold Brew consists only of filtered water and coffee, which we feel is a great alternative to the sugary drinks that crowd market shelves today.

    We believe that Black Hand’s expertise in selecting high quality and characteristically flavorful coffee beans and Triple Crossing’s expertise in production and canning made this collaborative relationship possible. We also feel strongly that as local artisans in the Richmond community, our ability to control the sourcing of the beans, the roasting and everything involved with the cold brewing process brings a huge benefit to the final product.

    These 16 oz. Nitro Cold Brew cans designed by Foggy London Towne will be sold at all Triple Crossing and Black Hand locations this Friday, April 7th. It will also be available at select local markets which will be announced shortly. We plan to continue scaling up the production and canning of cold brew coffee to meet the increasing demand.

    Coffee should not be more expensive than beer IMO

    Think Nectar and Knife cans will last for a week? Will be in Richmond afternoon/evening 4/27 and visiting Triple Crossing Thurs 4/27 or Fri 4/28.

    When it was last canned at the end of December they did 130 or so cases and it lasted about a week and a half. Pretty sure the limits were high if not no limit at that time. But the buzz is catching on so I don't see if lasting as long this go round.

    Good news is if they still have it on draft then swing by Foushee and they should be doing Crowlers.

    p.s. need to edit my original post of the release above. Friday's release will be at Fulton and not Foushee. Anything left should be split 50/50 between both locations on Saturday.

    With a large amount of out of town people coming in for Veil Anniversary on 4/22/2017 (myself included) I doubt cans make it until Sunday. I know I plan on going by Foushee first thing on Saturday.

    Is Nectar and Knife more like Falcon Smash or their newer IPAs?

    Thanks for the info, have someone in Richmond getting me various cans for trades when I arrive, so guess I'll see if he can grab some Nectar and Knife when it's released too.

    Expected counts and limits on Nectar & Knife releasing Friday.
    ______________________________________________________________
    The king of DIPA’s for us is back - Nectar and Knife DIPA. You will find very bright yet dank citrus fruit with a lot of guava undertones. As is the norm with our beers, extremely soft mouthfeel is present with very little bitterness. Nectar showcases Mosaic and Simcoe exclusively. We are shooting for 180 cases (2 case limit) at $16 per 4 pack. Cans will be available in Fulton on Friday at noon and if any cases are left they will be split between Downtown and Fulton on Saturday

    Have a buddy heading back up 95 around noon Friday and am wondering what to expect at open of the 4/21 nectar release. Do you guys anticipate a line? Have they had decent lines at open yet?

    Smart move dropping limits. Going to be a lot of non-locals in town this weekend so great chance for more people to taste what many already know.

    And dang! $22 4pk on that Far From Dawn?! I know that's probably on par, or a little less, per ounce if one were to get a draft pour on premise somewhere but that's one of the highest prices for a 16oz 4pk I have heard of in VA

    _____________________________________
    For the can release today in Fulton we will have two stellar variants available for draft pours only. There will only be one keg of each variant put on draft. Far From Dawn 4 packs are $22 and a 3x 4 pack limit per person as well.
